In today’s media it has been made clear Arsenal defenders Bacary Sagna and Per Mertesacker are getting closer and closer to putting pen to paper on new deals which would keep them at Arsenal for years to come.

Arsene Wenger said in his press conference:

We are making good progress, and hopefully we can announce something soon."

The Arsenal core

It’s always good news to hear that Arsenal players are close to signing new contracts at the club, and even better news when it is 2 of the vital defense that has kept Arsenal’s title mount alive this season.

It was around the same time last year when Wenger announced the contract extensions of the ‘British core’ of the Arsenal team and they have proved to be absolutely irreplaceable, especially Aaron Ramsey.

So now it’s time to get the signatures of 2 of Arsenal’s most vital players.
